Changes coming for Apple care. Fix your device on the spot. Good news for jailbreakers

This is welcome news. According to AppleInsider, Apple Care will not fix your device on the spot instead of exchanging your device for a like new one. That is not the only new news. Apple is also looking to move to or add a subscription model to Apple care. This can be great for those who devices go out of coverage. And its those phones that will be a win for jailbreakers. Right now if something goes south on your phone, its replaced, and your jailbreak and apps are gone. This is especially annoying if your phone is unlocked. So now that your device can be repaired on site and you can get a subscription, jailbroken life is getting a bit better.

Here is segment from the AppleInsider post…

Now we are starting to actually repair the products and return the same device to the customer.
